Parts for Chris' Mustang

Postby yamaha731 » Wed Sep 11, 2013 9:28 am

Few parts I'm still looking for to get the must-stain on the road.

Front shocks
rear 5 lug axles and drums
full length subframe connectors (has to be full length I'm afraid I'll fall through the floor)
5 lug rims and tires

Robs already helped out with springs and rear shocks. If anybody can help out let me know.

Thanks Chris

When you sell this car in 7 months you can sell the rails to me cheap:)

Sounds like you need a $200 donor car for that other stuff. All the wrecked foxbodies in Hernando County were sent to the crusher years ago. Start looking in fields.

Chris, I split your post out of Rob's thread. Your parts discussion is not relevant to his project.

I have purchased several items from this guy in Hudson. Has mostly fox body stuffs. Fair pricing, not cheap. Search him on CL. He usually has a dozen or more posts.

I also have a lot of other Very Nice Aftermarket mustang parts ,
Copy and paste my phone # in the tampa bay area Craigslist search bar 352 584 1523 to see all my listings


Good Luck.

I have a set (5) 16" pony wheels I can let go.

I've actually got some spare 5 lug axles, unfortunately they are still in NC, I'll probably be there for Thanksgiving in a couple months if you can wait that long. :)

Les, I am looking for an 8.8, hopefully with 3:55 or 3:73 gearsets and disc brakes. What do you have?

No SN95, though I don't know if there is a difference, splines perhaps?

I have a set of bolt on genuine Ford convertible subframe connectors, not as trick as the aftermarket ones , I wish you had mentioned that when you were here.

just a little update got just about everything I need just need some time to bang it all together. I'm hoping to make an event in the next month or 2. I've been trying to decide if I want to move to a race tire class has any one run the Nitto NT01 tires?

NT01s are ok - what is your priority, grip or longevity?

Also - I have not posted them for sale yet but I have a set of four used 265/40-17 Dunlop Direzza Z1s - at least 4/32nd tread remaining, even wear and plenty of heat cycles left - if you can use them I don't mind discounting them some more for a good cause and getting them to you sometime soon. They are on 17x9.5 wheels right now.
